Bless this Mess: July 14 - August 11
This series will be an invitation to examine what is getting in the way when it comes to our lives of faith? What are we holding onto that needs to be let go? What clutters our lives? What is behind the clutter? Jesus entered into our messy world and our messy lives to bring about restoration. We will be looking at Jesus’ interactions to see how he helped people understand the heart of what he’s come to do and bring about.
